POETRY GIRL is de naam waaronder singer songwriter Marianna Geraci (vocals, piano, accordeon, tekst en muziek) haar eigenzinnige, gevoelvolle muziek uitbrengt. Muziek die aan je ziel krabt. Die een sluier oplicht naar een andere wereld; dromerig surreëel en melancholisch, met een rauw en schurend randje.
Van jongs af aan heeft zij zich ontwikkeld tot een kunstenaar die geluid, tekst en beeld samenbrengt in werk dat het midden houdt tussen poëtische, muzikale schetsen, singer songwriterwerk en experimentele muziek.
POETRY GIRL : the name under which singer songwriter and artist Marianna Geraci (vocals, piano, accordion, lyrics, music & film) has been releasing her thematic musicprojects since 2016, which are a fusion of music, poetry, image and film.
The music of POETRY GIRL scratches your soul, lifts a veil to another world, dreamy surreal and melancholic, with a raw and abrasive edge. Marianna Geraci's work stands in the middle of poetic, musical sketches, singer-songwriter work and experimental music.
